DEFAULT CONFIGURATION IN TRACKSO IOT GATEWAY

Inverter ID: 1, 2, 3, 4 …. Continuous numbering starting with 1, (Range: 1 to 247)


Baud Rate: 9600
Data Bits: 8 , Stop Bit: 1 , Parity: None

CONFIGURATION AT THE INVERTER END (FOR INVERTER WITH SCREEN)

The inverter can support three kinds of knock: single knock, double knock and thrice knock. Each kind of knock has different
function. Refer to specified definition in Table below:

Knock type Definition


Single knock Next Page / Down
Double knock Enter / Set
Thrice knock Enter & ESC

NOTE: The below details are mentioned in the Installation & Operation Manual for Growatt Inverter.
The admin password for entering the Install Settings is 1234.

SETTING THE INVERTER ID

The inverter ID is used to identify the inverter in a RS485 connection

• Set a different inverter ID for each inverter in the PV plant. Otherwise, the inverters cannot be correctly identified.
• On the last inverter in the RS485 connection, switch on the RS485 termination resistor.

Setting COM address: Input password->Setting language->Set COM addr-> is the current address of inverter.”

 Set correct Inverter Ids

Before entering the ‘COM Address: xxx’ setting interface, you need to enter a password as below:

According to the LCD display, you need to input three numbers: 123.You should finish several steps as below:

1. when the LCD stays bright, single knock to ‘Setting…’,and then double knock to enter ‘INPUT 123:xxx’interface.
2. Double knock to make the first number flash, single knock to change the number, and the first number you need to input is
‘1’. Double knock to enter the second number while the first number was ‘1’.
3. When the second number is flashing ,single knock to change the number, and the second number you need to input is ‘2’.
Double knock to enter the last number while the first number was ‘2’.
4. When LCD displays ‘INPUT 123:123’, triple knock to enter the setting interface.
5. Single knock to ‘COM Address: xxx’, and then double knock to enter the setting status, single knock to change the COM
Address. When setting finishes, wait for 30s or triple knock to save your setting.
SET DATE & TIME OF INVERTER

For a precise calculation of the statistics in the inverter itself and in a monitoring system, date and time have to be correct.

• If you want to set inverter time, repeat the steps as described in above section to set Com Address.
• When LCD displays ‘INPUT 123:123’, triple knock to enter the setting interface.
• Single knock until LCD displaying ‘xxxx/xx/xx xx:xx’, and then double knock to enter the setting status, the numbers begin to
flash. Single knock to change the number, each knock makes the flashing number add ‘1’, and double knock to shift to next
number setting. When setting finishes, wait for 30s or triple knock to save your setting.
 Set the Correct Date & Time

Example Flow
Communication Card Settings

Multiple Inverters

In RS485 communication circuit, when the T/R+ and T/R- lines reach a certain
length (>100m), the line itself has impedance, in order to balance the
impedance of the RS485 bus line, you'd better get the jumper to the state
“ON” in RS485 BUS balance jumper of the remote inverter that the last one
connects to the RS485 bus line while others keep “OFF” state.
